How do you use mercari Japan? It says it can't be used in my region (USA). Is there a proxy service?

From Japan and Buyee are probably the most commonly used proxy services. Both will act on your behalf to purchase from Mercari.

I'm not seeing the same listings on Buyee. Bummer.

Anyone snag this? Looks quite nice especially given the low price.

Rare jacket but that’s a lotta money for it in that condition. I actually saw it for 400, guess it sold too quickly for their liking

Exactly the same thought I had. The size is on the smaller end and theres many flaws but i guess someone just really wanted one ‍¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I think the jacket is probably bigger than advertised. Looks like the jacket wasn’t measured properly- usually means it’s a bit bigger. Although for the price i would’ve probably wanted a clearer photo but who am I to judge

Didn’t Rivetts make the original (UK) highwayman labelled jackets? Held in equal or higher regard to Lewis of the era.

We're about to find out.

Jacket rec'd. Truth be told I'm shocked. It's perfect and from the look of the sleeves it hasn't even been worn much. No rolls on the sleeves, etc. Thick leather like the old comp stuff. It's a 46 for sure and still tight, no belly in the jacket, etc. I'll call Vanson tomorrow to find out how old it is.

Thanks again, Aero. I was half expecting to get poked pretty good on this but noop. This was a smoking deal.
